The Science Behind Brown Fat

Brown Fat

Brown fat, or brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a special kind of fat, found in most mammals, and when one becomes cold, brown fat “turns on” and burns off your regular fat on your hips, stomach, legs, and so on, in order to generate heat.

most mammals have brown fat (BAT), to keep them warm and to survive during hibernation

accumulates near major vessels of the trunk, so as to directly warm blood

increases in amounts when one is consistently exposed to cold (example: outside seasonal workers develop more BAT over winter months)

our ancestors probably had much more BAT (and were thus leaner) as they did not have constant indoor heating

How many calories can brown fat burn? How much real-world weight-loss can brown fat bring? Watch and find out!

Cold thermogenesis

an exciting new field in health, fitness, and weight-loss. CT is the practice of strategically using cold stimulus to induce all manner of positive, beneficial changes to health, physiology, and body composition. Also called cold stress, cold therapy, and thermal loading.

Practically every benefit to cold thermogenesis has been confirmed by the Cool Fat Burner via 3rd party scientific experimentation.

Fat Burning

The speed and total amount of fat you burn depends on the intensity level, time, and sessions per week you use the Cool Fat Burner.

Your body will burn calories and fat to keep your temperature at 98.6’F. In addition to various hormonal changes that increase metabolism, fat burning, and muscle building, you can burn a massive amount of calories with cold thermogenesis.

Beginner/Casual Intensity

Sensations: feeling lightly cooled off or a little “chilled out”Mechanism: works primarily through the “autonomic” nervous system.

increased respiration (breathing)

increased heart rate

increased catecholamine response

Note: this is a very relaxed, effortless level of intensity. Because it’s so easy, you can go at Casual intensity for many hours a day, 7 days a week.

Having said that, the original indirect calorimetry experiment showed that at Casual intensity you have a small increase in calorie burning that probably will not results in significant changes in body composition, and is probably better used for rest and relaxation and not weight loss. To burn fat, you should move up to higher intensity levels…

The Cool Fat Burner has not only proven it can activate Brown Adipose Tissue, that it can maintain maximal BAT levels even through months of summer weather, but it can keep BAT active for hours after you take off the cooling vest!

Insulin Sensitivity allows for the nutrients you eat to be burned up by Brown Fat or taken up to enhance your muscles, instead of being stored as fat and causing systemic inflammation, obesity, and disease.
